Replied To: NHL stacking

4-3-2 for Fanduel. Is Draftkings only 8 players? But I totally agree with you. Being able to pick like 5 teams, tell the system to only take 1 or 2 line players, and then tell it to stack in a specific format would be awesome. It would be equally as great to be able to set your "x" man stack (lets say it's 4) and then tell the program to fill in the remaining 5 spots with a 3-2 stack...

On another note, and sorry if I'm going feature crazy here, but is there any way to unselect all players from player pool at once. Right now to create a player pool of 25-30 players I have to manually deselect each player that I don't want in the pool and it takes forever in NFL specifically. Would be easier to deselect all and the select only the 25-30 I want... If that makes sense.

Also, if we are building MLB lineups, is there a way to tell the program not to take batter below 5 in the order? If there is I apologize I havn't dug as deep into the MLB yet as season is wrapping up. But I am curious.

Was just about to post something like this. Also, it would be great for NHL to go into the advanced options and tell the system to only take players from lines 1 and 2 for example. Takes way to long to exclude line 3 and 4 players right now. Is this something we could implement?

When does the next days data go into the system? For example NHL is locked tonight so when will the NHL cruncher flip to tomorrow slate?

Thanks!

Yea I'm going three right now. Will tweak as we go.

Good to know. Thanks. On another note. Anyone have an opinion on how many unique players you want from one lineup to the next when crunching multiple at once? For example when you crunch 50 lineups you can tell the program if you want 1 unique player in each lineup 2, 3, 4, 5... I am messing around with the different numbers. It just seems like you get more variance as you go higher. Where as when you go 1 or 2 you have more eggs in one basket, per say.

sorry this is probably dumb. I'm more of an NBA guy so why can't 2 opposing RB each have good games?

Yea I'm not too concerned about it and I agree with you. More than anything it would actually just be nice to enter lineups directly into draftkings contests like you can on Fanduel. The whole dummy lineup is more a luxury than a necessity haha

I'm not the only one that would like to be able to enter a dummy lineup multiple times in Fanduel and Draftkings contests just to reserve seats before a tourney fills up and then be able to go back, generate my lineups, closer to game time, and export all of those lineup variations into the dummy lineups? Am I? Would be pretty awesome for us 9-5 ers haha.

Thanks. Only problem with that is it also applies to your locked players. So I have to go in manually and change them back to 100% each.

Yea I know that. I meant to apply it to every player in your pool at once. It's not a big deal though. Also, any way to import directly into a draftkings contest like on Fanduel, as opposed to entering lineups then having to enter contest 1 by 1.

Is there any way to tell the optimizer to not have any player in more than 50% of my lineups? Besides the players I lock into every lineup?
